Children's Discount Supermarts / Supermarkets

1948–1957

1957–1967

In 1957, the Toys "R" Us! name was introduced. The "Я" character, found in many fonts, is of Cyrillic origin and normally indicates the "yah" sound in certain Eurasian languages, though it was also used to give an impression a child wrote it. The "Я" character is also found in the other words, which are the "CHILDЯEN's" and "SUPEЯMARTS" text. In 1965, "Geoffrey the Giraffe" was created as an official mascot.

The Children's Bargain Town USA stores in the Chicago area get converted to Toys "R" Us stores and adopt "The Children's Bargain Town!" as their new slogan.

On September 1, 1998, the 1985 logo was modified to add a yellow star outline surrounding the backwards R but within one year, the logo was modified again so the star was surrounded by blue. This logo continued to be used at some locations until it went bankrupt on June 29, 2018.

2007–present

Print version

The logo once again changed on September 22, 2007. With alternating sized characters, the first S's color scheme was finalized to a red version. There's also a slight change to the T, the O and the two S's. The star was added into the backwards R and it was made larger. Its color scheme was finalized again from yellow to blue and these speech marks were dropped from the backwards R.

On June 29, 2018, due to bankruptcy, all stores had been closed in the United States. On January 20, 2019, parent company Tru Kids Brands was formed to be the new owner for Toys "R" Us and Babies "R" Us.

On Thanksgiving Day 2019, two mall-size Toys "R" Us stores opened up for business. These two stores are at Westfield Garden State Plaza in Paramus, New Jersey and the Galleria in Houston. The company plans to open up more stores throughout the United States.
